2015 Vosne Romanee

Bizot's 2015 Vosne-Romanée Village is a dramatic, extroverted wine, exploding from the glass with aromas of incense, nutmeg, violets, dark chocolate and ripe cherries. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, supple and succulent, with fine-grained tannins, crunchy fruit and an ethereal, open-knit profile. While it's impressively integrated and clearly of very fine quality, this delicate Vosne is quite marked by its time in 100% new oak. It also evolves quite rapidly in the glass. So, I suspect it will be at its best in its extravagantly expressive youth, and I'd be inclined to pull corks right away.
